Wanderer,

I believe you deserve a gf.

Keep up your standards!

wallmenis,

It is the last one that ruins it.

You don’t need to make a comment about the users weight like that. Don’t be rude

doggle,

Nice of him to include unit conversions. Would want any of your international homies to be confused about how much of an alpha you are

Rentlar,

Having an ISO B6 paper size of dick sounds like it’s more trouble than it’s worth.

merc,

Rule of thumb: Anyone who says “I deserve a girlfriend” doesn’t.

blady_blah,

It looks like someone else took the original person’s post and added that after. So the author isn’t the one who actually said that… At least that’s how I interpret the green text.

merc,

That’s not how green texts tend to work.

I agree 100%

But I do think it’s weird how as kids we’re all generally told that “everybody deserves love” then you grow up and realize that’s just not true.

Why do we lie to children so much?

merc,

Deserving love is different from deserving a girlfriend.

Love is something you can spread around to multiple people. It can be anything from fraternal love for a co-worker you’ve gone through some rough experiences with, to romantic love that bonds you to one specific person.

Everyone deserves love by default, although some people hurt other people and stop deserving love. But, deserving love and deserving the 1:1 commitment of a girlfriend are very different things.

If you’re a kind-hearted, hard-working, trustworthy person who was raised with some fucked up beliefs, I’d say you deserve to be loved. Hopefully one of the people who loves you can take you aside and explain to you why your fucked up beliefs mean you can’t get a girlfriend. Hopefully that loved one can help you change so that a girl might want to make a commitment to you. But, nobody really “deserves” a girlfriend. They aren’t awards that can be handed out once someone completes the required steps.

That’s extremely well put and I appreciate and applaud your ability to explain it concisely.

merc,

Thanks.

rikonium,

Brick of text alert! But don’t sweat it since I more want to throw it out there and your comment got me thinking.

I’d say it’s a wholesome sounding, easy way out, same way we tell people to “just be yourself!” for dating. Probably we can shelve that alongside the tooth fairy, etc.

“Just be yourself!” is easy, makes sense, is watered down for kid’s consumption and also does have some good in that we don’t want kids trying to change themselves to fit others like I once did but the problem with that snippet is that it isn’t really actionable and leaves out the important part of being “the best you!” (even then that’s vague)

I was “being myself” many moons ago and it didn’t work in dating so I sunk into incel-land where it made sense to blame things I couldn’t change like race, area demographics, people who weren’t myself, etc. What I didn’t realize was that the “myself” that I was just plain sucked. While I was “nice”, I was an immature, anxious, awkward, very skinny, emotional wreck who had no idea who I really was. Metrics like height, penis length flaccid/erect, total max squat/bench/deadlift etc. were so much easier to quantify as something to “min/max” rather than “can I have a mature conversation about my feelings with someone?”

A long, rough, self-help-book-fueled journey ensued. Had to learn to love myself enough to not only accept myself but also try to become the “best myself” - and even then that was long road after the self-help books ended.

Generalized: “I deserve ________”. Nope. Probably not.

No_Money_Just_Change,

I deserve the same basic human rights as anyone on the planet

MartinXYZ,

I’ve been told I am handsome

It doesn’t count when it was said by your grandmother and you were six at the time.

Source of anime pic?

lud,

According to google lens the character is called Naoka Ueno

doggle,

Movie adaptation of a manga called Koe no Katachi/A Silent Voice. Looks like a tear-jerker

It is. I don’t remember that anime girl though.

Some refrigerators are white

A new fridge is young and “healthy”

A fridge can be over 6 feet tall

You can attach a suction cup dildo, or any sex toy you choose, to a fridge

Although fridges are completely neutral when it comes to honor and morality, I suspect they have a more tolerable personality

Refrigerators are available in many styles. You can pick one that you find “handsome”, or just tape a poster to it.

In a pinch, you can hide inside a refrigerator for protection

Refrigerators excel at providing resources. As for “coverture”, I’m still not completely sure what it is (even after looking it up) but it sounds like an outdated kind of marriage arrangement. That’s not something a refrigerator can provide, but I’m not sure someone would want it anyway.

Refrigerators have no stance when it comes to children, but since time out of mind, they have been encouraging the creativity of children by proudly displaying their artwork. The value of OPs influence on children is… questionable.

Most refrigerators cannot cook, and none can do the prep work. This is the only clear win for OP.

Most refrigerators can float if you tie the door shut. You may have to remove the compressor, though, because those things are heavy.

Refrigerators will silently watch any show you choose, or no shows at all. Same goes for music.

Under 6'1"? Fucking manlet

doggle,

Only 7"? Is he even a man?

Sheeple,
@Sheeple@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah I’m a woman and I’m bigger than him lmao.

eestileib,

If you use the term “manlet” you’re pretty much unfuckable, that could be part of it.

socsa,

These posts are such schadenfreude to me as a shorter guy (“manlet”) who has never had any problems dating or getting women. The kind of people who make these posts and think courtship is some max/min game don’t realize that people can smell this shit on them. Their insecurity, misogyny, entitlement and racism just ooze out of them. It colors everything they do.

nosurprises,

18x13=234cm peepee is a bit above average.

Vant,

I’m white

I can provide resources

90% chance this is one of those wannabe militia dopes who’s hoping there will be a race war in a few years…

superkret,

I have good taste in anime

99.95% chance this is a troll.

doggle,

Still a significant chance he can’t get a girlfriend, though

strong sense of morality

strong sense of honor

legitimately worried about “predators” in 2023 (definitely no problematic implications with that phrasing)

feels entitled to the love of a person he’s never met

ok

Sheeple,
@Sheeple@lemmy.world avatar

Also lists being white as a positive…

Yeah that is a yikes

purahna,
@purahna@lemmygrad.ml avatar

holy shit I missed that, yeah, the real question is finding a woman wretched enough to deserve to be saddled with this loser

averagedrunk,

I’m positive I’m white.

…wait, is that not what you meant?

SubArcticTundra,

He should be more concerned about protecting his offspring from liberals

rarely,

Peepee

paradiso,

Poopoo

moog,

haha doodoo fard
